chasing the crown

elton john

i built a wall in china

i sank an ocean liner

i've wrecked homes

i've burned thrones

chasing the crown

i've put thorns in your feet

i spread plague in the streets

i've sprung traps

confused maps

chasing the crown

i'm chasing the crown till he bites the apple

i was licking my lips till his son come down

i'm chasing the crown

the crown

i'm chasing the crown

i'm taking a turn in the right direction

by leaving his soul in the lost and found

i'm chasing the crown

i'm chasing the crown

i saw the tea float in boston

i saw the live wire shock them

i made them float

i made them drown

chasing the crown

i laid the desert sands

i froze the polar caps

well

they'd dry out

and i'd shout hey i'm chasing the crown""
